So today was again one of my normal day off to do chores, spend time with the wife, the usual. With rare exception, I usually have Thursdays and Sundays off, next week being one of the few where I have both Saturday and Sunday off. Woo hoo! A two day ...

So yesterday was a complete bust and I know why. Normally, I get a 20oz bottle of soda a day when I'm at work. Due to financial obligations this month, I had to stop that practice in order to save up money to pay for something. So except for a ...
